Well, with my manifold gauge, I can't detect ANY movement of the needle after the first ten minutes under the vacuum when connected to the car. The micron gauge says otherwise. Way otherwise.

If there was a down side, it would have to be the weight and bulk, but for the money it's pretty tough to beat. The other down side is that you can't change the oil. It's the ideal poor boy's vacuum pump.
